Hadīth Number 2 – Statement made to Hazrat ‘Alī ra
أنaرولaااللهaaااللهaہaوaمaخرجaاaتبوکaوaاتخفaاa

The Messenger of Allāh sa went out for Tabūk, appointing
Hazrat ‘Alī ra as his deputy (in Medina). Hazrat ‘Alī ra said, “Do
you want to leave me with the children and women?” The
Prophet sa said, “Will you not be pleased that you will be to me
like Aaron was to Moses? But there will be no prophet after
me”. 83
About the above hadīth, Hazrat Mirzā Tāhir Ahmad rh states:
There is another hadīth that our opponents
frequently quote to support their position. The hadīth
reads: “Saīd Bin Al-Musayyab reports on the
authority of Āmir Bin Sa‘ad Bin Abī Waqqās who
reports on the authority of his father (Allāh be
pleased with them): The Holy Prophet sa said to
Hazrat ‘Alī ra : ‘You are to me what Aaron was to
Moses, except there is no prophet after me’.” Another
version of the hadīth of Sahīh Bukhārī reads: “...except
that you are not a prophet.” Still another version
quoted by Masnad Ahmad Bin Hanbal reads: “...But do
not become a Prophet”. (1. Sahīh Bukhārī: Kitāb Al-
Fadhā’il – Chapter Fadhā’il ‘Alī Bin Abī Tālib; 2.
Sahīh Muslim: Kitāb Al-Fadhā’il; 3. Masnad Ahmad,
331/l).
